What Made Our Day Unique
Most people might say their wedding is the best day of their life - and it really is. But the team effort of a DIY wedding made it even more special for us, as we felt people were invested on a personal level and not just as a 'guest'. We were all proud of what we achieved together. Tom is English and Roxy Persian so we wrote our own wedding ceremony which was a secular amalgamation of traditional English and Persian wedding ceremonies. The service followed the wording of an English service but with the addition of a few Iranian elements such as the 'Sofreh Aghd' (symbolic wedding table), the grinding of sugar cones over the couple and the feeding of honey (both to bring sweetness to the marriage).
